My 10 most exciting fighters today (listed aplhabetically) Who are yours?
???
1. Jorge "La Hiena" Barrios, 47-3-1-1 (33 KOs). Barrios always comes to fight and his opponents better be ready to rumble. Are you hearing me, Juan Manuel Marquez?
2. Middleweight Alejandro "Naco" Berrio, My personal favorite when it comes to excitement. Chill or be chilled is what happens when this Columbian bomber is in the ring. He actually has a "kiss and punch" combination in his skill-set.
3. Miguel Cotto. has a 30-0 slate with 25 stoppages. Like Pipino Cuevas and Julio César Chávez, he not only beats his opponents, he breaks them down and injures them. He is a brutal old school type who tracks and executes like Jake LaMotta.
4. Vic Darchinyan, 28-1 with 22Kos. The fact we now know he can be sent “down under” allows this heavy handed guy to join the ranks of the exciting “chill or be chilled.”
5. Juan "Baby Bull" Diaz, 31 (16 ko's)-0. With tremendous hand speed and punching volume, complimenting his aggressiveness and great body punching, he creates continual excitement in the ring.
6. Arturo "Thunder" Gatti: Forget won-loss records. This is Gatti.
7. Ricky "Hit Man" Hatton. Crunching win over Castillo atones for Durango hold fest.
8. Manny "PacMan" Pacquiao. 44 -3-2 with, 36 KOs). He is the most exciting fighter in boxing today.
9. Edwin "Dinamita" Valero, 22 -0 with 22 KOs says it all. The problem is his fights don't last long enough to really enjoy, but it's not his fault.
10. Darnell "The-Ding-A-Ling-Man" Wilson, 22-5-3 with 19 Kos. Wilson is on a chilling roll and always promises something special.
Special mention to Marquez and Vasquez! And Jason Litzau.
